Celebrating 5 Years together!!

Five years ago today, after sitting in Manny's truck for probably an hour and 1/2 trying to say goodbye, but not wanting to leave yet (I was heading back to Reno at 9am) Manny finally worked up the courage to ask me if I wanted to be his girlfriend (it was 2am by that point lol). Of course I said yes (I had been dying for him to ask me already), and I knew that one day I would marry him. He was and still is, everything I wanted in a friend, a partner, a father, and a spouse. I had started falling in love with him and it was hard leaving that day since we had only technically begun our relationship, and I just wanted to spend time, much more time, with him.

Fast forward five years, and here we are today with our beautiful son, a lovely home, and a love that only keeps growing. I love Brad Paisley's song; he sings:

"I thought I loved you then...

now you're my whole life,

now you're my whole world,

I just can't believe

the way I feel about you girl,

we'll look back someday,

in this moment that we're in,

and I'll look at you and say,

'and I thought I loved you then'."

It's definately true, and every year we celebrate I think I've said something like that. I am so happy he is the one I get to spend the rest of my life with.

About Me

Our story begins in August 2006 when we met through a mutual friend. After just 2 weeks of hanging out and going on a couple dates, we knew we were meant to be! On September 23, 2010, we welcomed our funny little handsome man Adrian into the world, and on February 7, 2013, we welcomed our sweet and calm little boy Victor into our family. Life is a little bit crazier these days, but oh so much sweeter with our little ones. I am excited to see where life takes us and so happy that I get to go through it with my family. We are truly blessed!
